What is it?
Yate is a SIP server similar to asterisk. It also provides to ability to make and receive google voice calls through the a sip account directly on the n900.

How do I install it?
1. Make sure you have wget and php5-cli installed.

2. Install this package:
Code:
wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/121443/yate_3.3.2-1-1_armel.deb
dpkg -i yate_3.3.2-1-1_armel.deb
3. I made a script that sets up the configuration files for Google Voice. You can find it here.
Code:
wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/121443/yate-gv-setup.tar.gz
tar -xzvf yate-gv-setup.tar.gz
4. Edit yate-gv-setup.sh and fill in the configuration options at the top. Then run the following as root:
Code:
chmod +x yate-gv-setup.sh
./yate-gv-setup.sh
5. run 'yate' (as user) to start yate.

6. Create a new sip account on the device with the sip username@localhost set in the script above, and the password set in the script above.

Does anyone know how to remove a package from the extras-devel repositories? I previously uploaded a version that is newer than the currently released version at yate.com, and it is keeping me from uploading the newest version.

I need to remove 3.3.3.vir2011052702. Link

This is using gmail call, so it won't need to call back. You setup yate to connect to google voice via jabber, and then you setup a sip account on the n900 to register to the yate server (localhost).

It's similar to using google voice through asterisk, but you are running it directly on your device.

I am still waiting on a response from the maemo mailing list so I can get this in extras-devel. In the meantime you can use the deb package listed in the first post.

I made a script that sets up the configuration files for you in the first post. Please leave feedback on whether or not this works for you.

edit: what type of cpu useage are people getting for the yate process when it is idle (no calls in process)? It seems rather high to me. It looks like you can edit the yate.conf file (stored in /usr/etc/yate) and stop modules from loading. This may help the issue.

You need to install wget.

You will also need to make sure you have php5-cli installed.

Start yate by running 'yate' in terminal. Stop it using control-c.

The username should be without the @gmail.com part (so xxxx). I'll add a comment to the script.
